Republicans are targeting Planned Parenthood—and other essential providers of women’s healthcare—through Trump’s tax scam. This isn’t about policy; it’s about sneaking an extremist agenda into a massive bill that they know wouldn’t stand on its own.

The GOP knows Trump’s Tax Scam with massive Medicaid cuts is wildly unpopular. That’s why they held their hearing at 1 AM — to hide their bill from the American people. Don’t let them get away with it. If a Republican represents you, demand that they reject this bill: indivisible.org/reso...

Trump’s Tax Scam would trade American lives for billionaire tax breaks. New estimates show the GOP’s plan would strip Medicaid coverage from seven million people and cause more than 200,000 avoidable deaths.

Proposals to impose work requirements on Medicaid expansion enrollees would cause large coverage losses and hundreds of avoidable deaths each year in many congressional districts.

Trump v. Trump

A screengrab of Trump’s post from January 29, 2024: “THIS IS THE TRUMP STOCK MARKET BECAUSE MY POLLS AGAINST BIDEN ARE SO GOOD THAT INVESTORS ARE PROJECTING THAT I WILL WIN, AND THAT WILL DRIVE THE MARKET UP — EVERYTHING ELSE IS TERRIBLE (WATCH THE MIDDLE EAST!), AND RECORD SETTING INFLATION HAS ALREADY TAKEN ITS TOLL.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

A screengrab of Trump’s post from April 30, 2025: “This is Biden's Stock Market, not Trump's. I didn't take over until January 20th. Tariffs will soon start kicking in, and companies are starting to move into the USA in record numbers. Our Country will boom, but we have to get rid of the Biden "Overhang." This will take a while, has NOTHING TO DO WITH TARIFFS, only that he left us with bad numbers, but when the boom begins, it will be like no other. BE PATIENT!!!”

In 100 days, we’ve changed the political weather. We show up because this is how we build a nationwide, unified opposition. And 100 days in, that opposition is far more unified and…well…oppositional than it was in January. Take a step back and look at how the political winds have shifted.
